Erin BSeptember 10, 2017Well-maintained wood with good walking paths and informative signposts. Home to the remains of an earthwork from ancient times. Café & public loos in the centre of the wood.
Time Out LondonMarch 27, 2012Highgate Wood has an excellent and well-equipped playground, complete with sandpits, climbing equipment of various levels of difficulty and a zip wire that gets very busy at peak times. Read more
Christina ParpoulaMay 3, 2016What an amazing place! Wander through the trees or play some frisbee with your children or dog at the fields. There is a cafe where your can get some food or use the toilet facilities.
Lovely woods, great playground, but most of the paths are dirt paths. So of it is raining your shoes will get quite muddy.
- Paul WoolfsonOctober 4, 2015This is a great place to bring the kids. Plenty of space. Excellent playground and lovely cafe.
Nick BlackDecember 30, 2018Beautiful woodland space with footpaths to explore the forest and a very good kids' playground.
At the side of the cricket pitch is a lovely cafe, good food, nice place to sit and sip a cold drink whilst people watching!- Scott WilkinsonJuly 18, 2010Queen's Wood cafe chilled and food great. It makes the entire place a must-go destination for parklife, especially with kids. It's all very civilised.
Great bit of Highgate to express with a coffee place dead center

Caleb StorkeyFebruary 16, 2013Perfect swings for young babies. Shaped like a nappy and secure and snug :)
Check out the bluebells, they're growing between Bridge Gate & Cranley Gate.
